SNAP-FIT SYSTEM ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: To the Installer - Please remove all the shims from the Snap Fit extrusions of the unit prior to installation.
1. The 3-piece Shower unit should be pre-assembled first prior to alcove installation. Pre-assemble the unit as close to the
framing as possible to minimize movement of the unit during installation. Assemble the unit by first placing the bottom section
in position, followed by the mid section and then the canopy. See Figure 5.
2. Position the tub section first as shown in Figure 6.
3. Apply the mildew resistant bathroom silicone caulking inside the snap fit extrusion throughout the entire length. This has to be applied
to all six snap fit extrusions on the product. See Figure 7.
4. Next, snap position the middle section carefully into the tub section. See Figures 8, 9 & 10.
5. Lock the system by applying moderate pressure from the upper portion of the mid-section, lock with the back snap first then followed
by the two side snaps . When in locked position the two sections should align and fill the gap as shown in Figure 11. If there is a gap at
the seam, then unlock and adjust the section to ensure centering to minimize the gap.
6. Repeat the same procedure to put the canopy or the upper portion in place. See Figure 12.
7. A bead of mildew resistant bathroom silicone caulking should be applied to the back side of the top and bottom joint to form a moisture
barrier. See Figure 11.
8. When fully assembled, carefully slide the unit into the frame by pushing the assembly at the bottom on the threshold. See arrows in
Figure 13.
9. Should gaps be visible at top and or bottom seams, adjust the area by applying moderate force at the arrows shown in Figure 13.
10. Fasten the unit into the framed alcove by the recessed 2” x 2” around the periphery of the opening as illustrated in
Figure 3, (2 vertical studs and 1 across the top).
11. Drywall finish the framed alcove as shown in Figure 4.
12. Follow the manual for all other installation procedures.
